I need to create a bespoke boiler unit for insertion into an MEP model. My question is: Can I use the Family Editor in Revit Architecture to create the family or do I need to use MEP's Family Editor? Are families created in each Editor, interchangeable in the other programme? (if that makes sense? )

I would rather use Revit Architecture if possible, as using MEP would mean working on someone else's machine.

You can do it all within Revit Architecture's Family Editor. Just make sure you add the correct "Connectors" to the family. This will enable the MEP engineers to add pipework and wiring to it.
